Review Quote

Revelatory… Ramirez shows again and again that dark age Europe was a far more various place than we like to believe
Other text

One of Femina's greatest strengths is that it is not just a collection of medieval heroines, although there are inspirational stories aplenty in its pages, but also a readable and wide-ranging account of the Middle Ages – with the women put back in – that forces us to look at familiar stories in new ways
